Love my Avalon

I purchased my Avalon ew I. 2012. It only has 95,000 miles and I try to take care of her. This is the best car I’ve ever owned. It’s a great road car and extremely comfortable to ride in. The back seats recline! It has a huge trunk and I’ve even hauled furniture in it. My Avalon is black but the paint still looks new. I do try to keep a wax on it which helps when you live in the desert. My car is 12 years old and I commute to work every day. This car is very reliable and has never had a mechanical issue. I would buy this car again in a heartbeat but I think I’ll be driving Black Beauty another 12 years! Thanks for making the Avalon Toyota!

Excellent decision

When shopping for a new vehicle and after trying out four at different dealerships to replace our high-end Buick, we ended up with a selection of our Toyota Avalon. This vehicle is smooth and quiet, with power when one needs it. I especially enjoy the great visibility when driving which is superior to other vehicles, Great ride.

Love the Toyota Avalon

The 2012 Toyota Avalon Limited is a great vehicle in general. It is not flashy and will not attract younger crowd. The body design is large and the interior is very roomy. The 3.5 V6 engine is smooth and so is the transmission. I will admit it is designed for luxury and comfort over everything else. I purchased this vehicle for this purpose. I am older and I wanted the comfort of the vehicle, the ease of handling and the reliability of Toyota. The vehicle is not perfect and I can't recall seeing any vehicle that is perfect. The pros: fuel economy for a non hybrid is 28 - 30 mpg, large leather seats are extremely comfy, leg room, power everything, sleek dashboard design, smooth ride, reliability. The cons: cosmetically not flashy, small back up video on the rear view mirror, the automatic rear shade will fail at some point, cost of replacement parts and repairs. I've had to put some money into repairs, but I do have 175,600 miles on it. I bought the vehicle used and I love it. I do regular maintenance on it, oil changes, transmission fluid change, brake pad and rotor replacement, and tune ups and the Avalon runs like a champ and as long as I don't wreck it, I will probably run 300,000 miles on it before considering replacing it and likey it will passed down to one of my kids. I have disconnected the rear automatic shade because the motor is going bad on it and it was making a lot of noise going down. And cost of tires for the vehicle are not cheap, but I want to have quiet and grippy tires so I only look for name brand tires. And I had a rack and pinion leak and torn boot, this had been the only real costly repair. If anyone is looking for a great family car/old man's car, I would recommend this vehicle every day. I really like the newer generations and will probably get another Toyota Avalon in the future.

Toyota Avalon

I’ve owned two Avalons. Had they not went out of production I probably would have bought another one. They are the poor man’s Lexis. Never had a major problem with them. I put about 180,000 miles on the vehicles I own

Review of 2012 Toyota Avalon

This is my second Avalon. I had a 2006 and was so happy with it that when I needed a replacement, I bought a second one. I am large and need a big car. Both of the Avalons are roomy and comfortable. On road trips, I usually average between 30 and 32 MPG, which is good for a large and comfortable auto. The only service that has been required on either car has been the 5,000 mile interval service, which I have had completed, religiously. When the time comes to replace the Avalon I have, I will probably get another.

my 2012 Avalon

I am totally pleased with my 2012 Avalon, over these last three years. The ride/suspension is soft and I no longer feel every bump in the road. A quite inside cabin increases the music pleasure, I receive form listening to the audio and the navigation system has recovered, my directional challenged mind, more than once. The interior leather seats are comfortable to sit in, which makes for an easy-four hour drive stretch. I am more than pleased with my Avalon and hope the next three years will continue fulfilling my driving pleasure.

2012 Avalon Limited

(in our opinion) The Avalon's comfort ride and lack of road noise sold us the car, a few years ago, not the talking salesman. Today, the car's still providing us with many hours of driving time, without the need for stops to stretch our legs or to turn up the music, as we drive down the concrete highway. I'm able to coax about 33mpg out of my Avalon v6 @ 63mph..if I don't pass anyone.
